Where does the food tour start and end?
Our delicious Akureyri Food tour begins by the main entrance of Hof Cultural Centre, a big round building by the ocean, right in the heart of downtown Akureyri. Hof Cultural Centre is easy to find and very centrally located on Strandgata 12, 600 Akureyri. Hof is within walking distance from most hotels, hostels and apartments in Akureyri. For guests driving their own car, parking spaces are north and east of the building. Our tour always ends in the centre of downtown Akureyri. Just a few minutes walking from both our meeting location (Hof Cultural Centre) and most hotels in Akureyri!
How much walking is there involved in the Akureyri Food Walk?
The walking distance in our Akureyri Food tour is approx. 2 km or 1,2 miles but it can vary between tours :) The tour is really easy as we are never walking further than to our next restaurant where we will sit down and enjoy a delicious local cuisine. Furthermore, the walking is usually slow paced as we are exploring the town as we go!
